See Cup, Challenge… I know, it’s typical bulls**t, but how do you solve the competing needs? Quite an easy fix. Wipe out yellows from the group stage like other competitions would do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still waiting as well however we changed our season ticket seats to be in the Railway Stand and I'm sure email I got said physical ticktes will be sent out at a later date for people in that boat. Never received a physical season ticket for the South Stand prior to us changing stand. Interestingly my Fanbase account still has us in the South Stand but in two totally different rows, first of me noticing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a tougher one. Maybe add one after the third round so that any players on 2 single yellows on separate games can feature. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, if any of their players were sent off in the league cup last season, they'd be out for Sunday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted August 18, 2023 Author Share Posted August 18, 2023 On 13/08/2023 at 10:51, Hank Scorpio said: Hi guys. In August last year Ross McLean - a very good friend’s brother - committed suicide in Glenrothes. Ross was reported missing on August 14 and we searched for him for 5 days, before finding him at rest in a quiet wooded area near his home. Ross’ family are understandably devastated by their loss and that they were unable to help Ross, but are determined that for others in a similar position, there is help available. Ross was and his family are East Fife supporters, so we will be taking part in a charity 11s game to celebrate Ross’ life at Bayview a week today, with all funds raised for the fantastic charity - Back Onside. A just giving page has already raised nearly £5,000, and we have managed to secure signed strips for a number of clubs, Rovers being one. The strip is available below, and all money raised will go to Back Onside to help those who need it. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/364414732235?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=az5yphsksue&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=ec0uwzxiswu&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY There is also a donations page, if you’d like to donate anything: https://www.justgiving.com/page/matchforross The auction ends of Sunday morning. The Rovers strip is currently at £215. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully a few more quid can be squeezed out. After all, £215 is a snip for a shirt autographed by the 2023/24 quadruple winning squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 We've clearly outgrown Scottish football. The supply just can't match demand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two thirds of Easter Road's capacity is around 13500. I'd be pleasantly amazed if the crowd is even close to that tomorrow. I was reckoning on about 8/8500. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 I'm guessing any more would mean Hibs opening the top tier which probably isn't cost effective to accommodate another 50 fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind the stadium being only 2/3rds full, the stand they’ve allocated us is only half full and they won’t sell us any more tickets! Can’t imagine it would cost a massive amount to open the top tier, it’s not like there are more toilets or food kiosks up there (are there? I can’t remember but think they’re all on the bottom). But I guess the stewarding costs mean they think it wouldn’t be worth while. On a similar note, I was buying tickets for the Dunfermline game the other day (when I looked I reckon we’d sold about 150tickets) and they’re not selling the two blocks closest to the main stand. Presumably they’ll open those if we sell the other blocks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyser_soze Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 If anyone has a ticket going spare for tomorrow please DM me, Mrs Soze has changed her plans so I can now make it to the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxRover Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Grieg Young slotting in well at Dumbarton, crossing in the ball for the first goal. Seems to have found a spot that suits him…LB…hummmm…yea, it’s League Two, but we spent time developing the lad, and just let him go when a LB on the bench wouldn’t be a bad thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge thank you to everyone who has bid - barring any last minute surges on the others it looks as though our strip will raise the most out of the 6. Hope everyone has a great day at Hibs today. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
